Theme: Transformation

With the Moon forming a grand trine Uranus and Pluto today it’s a day that offers a chance at beneficial change as forces greater than oneself come into contact with the more personal energy of the Moon. In other words it’s a good day to make the wish to be of benefit to all sentient beings and go where transformational energy directs you. This wish also allows you to serve more beings, especially with the Moon also opposite Neptune directing one towards self-less service. The Moon moves into the peacemaker sign of Libra today bringing much needed change at a time of conflict and war in the world, albeit for a short time.

My advice to you, therefore, is to look within with honesty and clarity and practice what you have been taught, and in this way your life will be transformed into a vehicle of blessings.~Jetsunma Ahkhon Norbu Lhamo

Theme: Perfectionism

In the second half of the day Venus enters Virgo, and we become more perfectionistic in our relationships. Can we perfect our side of the street and still be patient with the faults of others? The Moon has entered Leo for a few days, which brings out the need for play and creative self-expression. The Mars and Pluto square is peaking today. Use this energy carefully, and be kind to others.

One of the most important and central thoughts in Buddhist philosophy is the idea of compassion. ~Jetsunma Ahkon Norbu Lhamo

Theme: Asserting Ourselves

The Moon joins the Mars and Pluto square for much of the day, giving us a cardinal t-square apex Mars, or even a cardinal grand cross, when you add in the south node. This is a time to take action, but in bursts of effort, not prolonged and steady. Expect opposition from others, even when well-intentioned. It is good to take advantage of the strong Libra energy. Way out all options before embarking on a cause.

The difference between successful people and really successful people is that really successful people say no to almost everything. ~Warren Buffett

The Moon is void of course today from 3:13 pm until 7:26 pm EDT. Do not make any big decisions during this time period.

Theme: Struggle or Transform

The square aspect between Mars and Pluto continues. This can cause us to bring opposition from others due to our ambitious tendencies, or perhaps run into others ambitions. So struggles ensue. Or we can potentially control the energy. Compassionate intentions always help. Then much can be accomplished in transforming the world around you. In the middle of the day the Moon challenges the Sun, bringing small tensions to the surface.

… We are the ones we have been waiting for. We are the change that we seek. ~Barack Obama

Theme: Kite Again

Uranus and Pluto are again involved in a “kite pattern”. This time Mercury and Neptune are the opposing planets, the long stick of the kite. There is a challenge in terms of confusion and lack of clarity. But there is much spiritual potential. We can be very sensitive and compassionate. Communicate from this motivation and things will go well. The Moon is exalted in Taurus for a few days, which stabilizes our emotions.

The only thing that is meaningful is to make this life a vehicle by which you can come to benefit beings. ~Jetsunma Ahkon Norbu Lhamo

Theme: Intelligence

Today especially, the Sun unites with the astroid Pallas Athena giving us some special qualities. Intelligence, strength of character and courage are enhanced. This also favors creative endeavors. This continues to be a time of heightened mental stimulation, and the need for excitement in relationships. We need to watch our temper during the early to mid day time period as the Moon opposes Mars.

The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination. ~Albert Einstein

Today the Moon is void of course from 5:51 pm until 9:19 pm EDT. Do not make any major decisions during this time period.

Theme: Mental Stimulation

Mercury is almost up to full speed ahead, and it trines with Uranus for a few days. We are stimulated mentally, and have enhanced intuition, but not so much patience and diligence. It is a good time to break your routine, and science, technology and travel are favored. Venus squares Uranus at the same time indicating restlessness to the point where some will pick a fight in relationships. Best to be aware of the need for excitement, and not take this too seriously.

I prefer a world with many beliefs and religions. It stimulates my faith to keep growing day by day. ~Toba Beta

Theme: Intense Emotions

For much of the day the Moon is united with Pluto which not only intensifies emotions, but gives clear insight into them. Can we be true to our values during this time? Venus and Mars harmonize for two more weeks. This favors forming and maintaining relationships, general socializing and financial opportunities. The Sun is inconjunct Saturn today, which indicates responsibilities can seem burdensome until we make an adjustment in our approach.

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart. ~Helen Keller

The Moon is void of course today from 4:07 pm until 7:31 pm EDT. Do not make any big decisions during this time period.

Theme: Down to Earth

Especially during the middle of the day, there is a grand trine in earth signs involving the Moon, Mercury and Jupiter. This is a nice combination, giving us sensitivity and a broad overview concerning our thinking and communications. We are practical, ambitious, and comfort oriented. With the Sun joining Mars in Libra for the next 2 1/2 weeks we are focused on how we relate to others, and we seek beauty and harmony.

Keep your eyes on the stars, and your feet on the ground. ~Theodore Roosevelt

Theme: On the Other Hand…

Late in the evening the Sun enters Libra today, so happy birthday all Libras. Indecisiveness is a common theme, as Libras weigh the scales and can have difficulty choosing. Tensions arise, particularly in the second half of the day as the Moon makes a square aspect to the sun. Small crises arise or perhaps if we are lucky we just feel a burst of energy. The Moon enters Capricorn, and we become colder and more ambitious late in the day.

Libras always tend to see exactly what’s going on around them so you can’t fool them. ~ Amber Taliman

The Moon is void of course today from 3:33 pm until 4:21 pm EDT. Do not make any big decisions during this time period.
